Patent EP-0651413-A1 (EP)
Inventor: EDWARDS ARTHUR JAMES
IPC: H01F7/18
Filed: 1987-07-31
Abstract: An improved solenoid driver control circuit is disclosed in which solenoid current is sensed and provided as an input to a comparator means comprising two separate comparators (24, 25). The comparator means receives a solenoid current sense signal (45) and maximum and minimum reference threshold levels which determine maximum and minimum current limits (I max , I min ;.H max , H min ) for solenoid current during initial 
pull-in excitation and subsequent hold excitation. Pull-in time (T₁) is defined by a monostable multivibrator (33) reacting to a control pulse (41) to produce a predetermined pull-in time pulse (43) such that the pull-in time is independent of sensed solenoid current. During pull-in time a boost driver switch (53) applies high boost voltage to a power source terminal (16) which supplies solenoid current, and in response to achieving the maximum pull-in current limit (I max ) lower battery voltage is provided at the power source terminal. If the maximum pull-in current limit does not occur within a predetermined time (t b1 ) after pull-in initiation (at t₀), then the lower battery voltage is applied to the power source terminal at that time. The above configuration insures rapid initial solenoid response while minimizing power dissipation and circuit stress.

IPC: G06F12/00

Abstract: A computer method and storage structure for storing and accessing multidimensional data is provided. A tree manager provided by the present invention stores data such as pointers, variable length data records, other B-trees, and directories, in a Multidimensional B-tree (MDB-tree). An MDB-tree has an imbedded "parent-child" structure which allows subtrees to be stored within nodes. The subtrees contain subnodes, which, in turn, may contain subtrees. The nodes are indexed by a primary key value while the subnodes in a subtree are indexed by secondary key values. Nodes of a MDB-tree contain a key value table, a subnode table, and a data area. When the tree manager attempts to store a unit of data on a page and the unit of data is too large for the page, the tree manager attempts to split a node currently stored on the page (or the unit of data being inserted) into a subnode and a subtree. The subtree is then stored on a new page. If the unit of data cannot be split into a subnode and a subtree, then one or more of the node currently stored on the page are moved to a new page.

Abstract: A radiographic camera has a housing which enclosed a tube with a radiographic source. The conduit is coupled to a locking assembly at the back end of the camera and to a connector at the front end of the camera. A plug assembly is coupled in the connector mechanism. The connector has a movable shield which selectively blocks the conduit from the exterior of the housing when the plug assembly is partially removed, and unblocks the conduit when the plug assembly is removed and when a guide cable is being attached. The shield is mounted on a slide which also has a connection to a switch on the back of the camera. The switch is actuable when the shield is not blocking the conduit. The switch allows control cables to be connected to the locking assembly and can be actuated after the guide cable is attached.

Abstract: A combination lock of the kind having an assembly (W) of gated tumbler wheels rotated by a lock dial shaft (114), and a fence lever (116) biased by a spring (120) towards an operative position in which, when the tumbler wheels are in a predetermined alignment, a nose (116') of the force lever (116) engages a slot (118') in a drive disc (118) to enable the bolt (124) to be withdrawn. A wire spring (140) is connected to the fence lever (116) and to a cam plate (130) slidable between a non-displaced position (Fig. 3) and a displaced position (Fig. 4). In the non-displaced position, the wire spring (140) exerts a force on the fence lever (116) which overcomes the force of its spring (120), and so holds the nose (116') of the fence lever (116) out of engagement with the drive disc (118). In the displaced position of the cam plate (130), the tension on the wire spring (140) is relieved, so that its force no longer overcomes that of the spring (120), which moves the fence lever (116) to its operative position. The cam plate (130) is held in the non-displaced position by a cam disc (126) associated with the drive disc (118), except for a brief period once during each revolution of the disc, when a cut-away segment (126') of the cam disc (126) engages a straight side (132") of an opening (132) in the cam disc. The nose (116') of the fence lever (116) therefore engages the drive disc (118) only momentarily once in each revolution of the disc, so preventing tampering of the lock by detecting engagements of the nose of the fence lever with the slot in the drive disc.

Abstract: Für die Übertragung von PALplus-Signalen ist eine Signalart-Kennung vorgesehen. Für die Aufzeichnung von PALplus-Signalen auf S-VHS-Recordern ist eine Teildecodierung der PALplus-Zusatzinformationen vorgesehen, so daß die Zusatzinformation als Basisbandsignale aufgezeichnet werden. Die Kennung kann eine bereits stattgefundene Teildecodierung berücksichtigen. Wenn PALplus-Signale auf S-VHS-Recordern aufgezeichnet werden, läßt sich das Farbsignal nur noch standardmäßig wiedergeben. Das Wiedergabe-Verfahren für PALplus-Signale mit einer Reduktion von Cross-Effektion ist unter dem Begriff Colour-Plus bekannt und benötigt im Wiedergabegerät Bildspeicher. Die Kapazität dieser Bildspeicher in einem PALplus-Empfänger/-Decoder ist aber generall frei bei der Wiedergabe von auf S-VHS-Recordern aufgezeichneten PALplus-Signalen und kann vorteilhaft für qualitätsverbessernde Maßnahmen eingesetzt werden. Für aufgezeichnete PALplus-Signale wird eine zusätzliche Information in die Signalart-Kennung eingebracht, die einer Wiedergabe-Einrichtung anzeigt, daß es sich um ein aufgezeichnetes PALplus-Signal handelt und somit eine Teildecodierung, d.h. Umsetzung der Zusatzinformationen in das Basisband, stattgefunden hat. In der Wiedergabe-Einrichtung wird dann aufgrund dieser Information ein entsprechender Teil der Signaldecodierung nicht mehr aktiviert. Diese erweiterte Kennung muß nun aus Kompatibilitätsgründen auch für wiederaufgezeichnete PALplus-Signale der mindestens zweiten Generation vorgesehen werden, sowie für über Cassetten in den Markt eingebrachte PALplus-Software. Für solche prerecorded Software ist es dann möglich, mit der erweiterten Kennung in PALplus-Recordern eine Aufnahmesperre in Gang zu setzen, die einen verbesserten Kopierschutz gewährleistet.
